LuPR: Lunar Post Recruit
A retro first-person shooter party game where 1-4 local players battle with or against each other and AI bots as soldiers stationed across the far reaches of the solar system. Peace between the planetary factions has been shattered and nowhere is safe. Join the fight for control of the planets and battle for victory! (Or just for fun)
Defeat challenges for unlockables or customize your battle arena: choose weapons, map, team split, game mode and more. Every game is a unique experience thanks to the AI NPCs and the randomness of your friends!
No micro-transactions or DLC… just like the 90s!
** NOTE – for now, to use PlayStation controllers you’ll need DS4Windows (or similar).
Team Based Arena-Style Game Modes
Set time and/or point limits. Optional kid-friendly paintball mode to eliminate gore. Choose from 6 game maps (1 from beating the Map Unlock challenge).
- Combat: Shoot people NOT on your team for points
- King of the Hill: Race to the hill and keep enemies out long enough to get a point
- Capture the Phone: Grab the phone from the enemy base then back to yours for a point
- Hold the Grenade: Destroy the grenade holder. Once you have it DON’T DIE for more points
- High Score: Play against the AI to beat your own or global high scores
- Survival: How long can you survive the AI bots? The longer you last the harder they get.
Weapons
Customize or randomize your game’s weapon slots with any of 15 weapons
Player Customization

Great throwback game now that we actually have TVs big enough for 4 player split screen. Just had a lot of fun completing all the unlockables!

This retro-shooter game has quickly become a favorite game for hanging out with friends, waiting in dungeon queues, etc. I love that you can just drop into a game of "Capture the Phone" and immediately have a blast. LuPR is fundamentally a simple game, so there isn't a huge learning curve or grind (perfect for playing with friends), but there is also a great depth of customization through weapons, unlockables, and maps.
I requested this game through Early Access, so your mileage may vary, but I have seen great attention to QOL improvements, responding to user feedback, and even adding new maps/content. I am very excited for where this game will be with future updates - I think it is a wonderful niche in the vein of the "classic games" genre, but with modern comforts and new content. I really cannot ask for more!

This reminds me so much of my favorite games growing up in the 90s. Jump in and start shooting your best friends! Some very comical gun selections and some good physics that make for a chuckle really add to it.
The game modes are standard fare for the 90's FPS genre and I feel at home.
The unlockable game modes made me really miss the good ol days.
The get tiny then explode mode brought back the horrors of Odd Job.
I was an early access user.

This is not a game you buy for beautiful graphics or realistic animations, but if you grew up playing N64 classics like Perfect Dark then you'll get what they’re going for here. Favorite feature: All the random funny balloon head options.
You can play solo, but the fun is in multiplayer mode. I could play King of the Hill all day long, but Capture the Phone and Hold the Grenade are fun takes on the old school team games.

Not normally a FPS fan but this was recommended by a friend and is addicting. Recommended.

This is a retro first person shooter game and it was fun. It is simple to set up and has different game modes. I personally liked King of the Hill. Definitely recommend this game.

Great FPS game for the price. The challenges to unlock additional modes etc is a nice touch. Some of the challenges are very difficult but the settings are customizable to your skill level.
